Now that was a rabbit hole worthy of slaying brief time: who knew there was a Richter scale for erections?; priapism comes in 2 forms? one benign, one dangerous, but both kinda sorta handy; aaand finally fistulas .... there's a new word. In respect of this application it's especially ... eew.

Uhhh. I just spent a minute looking at Google maps and street view and remembering the area and I can't figure out how he got there. Behind him and the camera person are stairs that I doubt the car would've gone up.

There is a bridge that comes from the Maynard parking lot or maybe from behind the parking garage. There is also a small road from Toole but all of those are designed for pedestrians/cyclist.

Here is video of the area. I don't see how they got there

Couldn't have come from 9th/4th, there are stairs and narrow hand rails. He/she must have turned onto the sidewalk in front of HiFi, made a uturn and came back out the same way

A few of the comments, including the girl that put the video up, said the car came out of the elevator. Not possible

The wanted Alabama man accused of feeding meth to an “attack squirrel”responded to the charges and ensuing media coverage in a Facebook Live video — while petting a squirrel.

Mickey Paulk appeared in the live video Tuesday afternoon, just hours after the Limestone County sheriff’s office issued a press release about the case of the now-viral “attack squirrel.” Investigators said Paulk, who is wanted on drug charges, fed meth to the squirrel “to keep it aggressive.” Paulk remains on the run.

In the Tuesday video, Paulk appeared along with a squirrel, which he claims is the same one released by deputies. A sheriff’s spokesman on Wednesday told AL.com that investigators don’t know whether it’s the same squirrel in the video.

This almost belongs in Florida thread even though no Floridians involved and it happened in Northern European waters.

“One witness, part of a group involved in the trouble, explained to staff that things kicked off when another passenger appeared dressed as a clown. This upset one of their party because they’d specifically booked a cruise with no fancy dress. It led to a violent confrontation,” he wrote.

Gaisford tweeted on Saturday: “‘There was blood everywhere’. Violent late night brawl in the buffet onboard P&O Cruises’ Britannia left staff who intervened injured, as passengers used furniture and plates as weapons. Witnesses told me they were so frightened they had to hide, as family groups fought.”

A superfund site in Montana sold bags of toxic waste as souvenirs

https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets ... li=BBnb7Kz" target="_blank

"And here was a town tourism brochure actually advertising the fact that curious tourists and history enthusiasts could take home a wee bag of the stuff. Staff of the inspector general had visited the town in July and heard about the “souvenirs” themselves."

“It’s a silly little thing, but I understand, they’re concerned,” Mary Johnston, the chamber’s executive director, told the AP on Monday. “It was not a big moneymaker. It was just a novelty item we could offer,” Johnston said. They stopped selling sandwich bags of slag as of Monday."


And ya think South Dakota is weird?
